Free Entertainment Reviews: Screen It Before You Watch, Literally

By Chris Robinson

You may be a person that enjoys renting movies for a quiet evening at home or an avid moviegoer.  However, there’s just not a great way to know what that movie contains until you watch it, right?  For movies, the MPAA rating (G, PG, PG-13, R) is some help, but you often find a few surprises that you didn’t think could possibly be in a PG-13 movie!

Well, I’d like to introduce you to a FREE source of Entertainment Reviews: http://www.ScreenIt.com

You can check out Movies, Videos, or Music – before you buy, or at least before you put them in for family enjoyment.  Let’s take a look at a new release:

Freaky Friday (PG) (2003) (Jamie Lee Curtis, Lindsay Lohan)
Go to ScreenIt.com
Click on VIDEOS
Click on F (alphabetical)
Click on Freaky Friday
Impressed?  In just a few minutes, you get a really thorough movie review for FREE!

ScreenIt.com includes 15 categories in each movie review:

1) ALCOHOL/DRUG
2) BLOOD/GORE
3) DISRESPECTFUL/BAD ATTITUDE
4) FRIGHTENING/TENSE SCENES
5) GUNS/WEAPONS
